Apparently Cutler once asked Wyatt, with some concern, whether he was still a communist. You are what you are, Wyatt replied.
I love this, it's from Cutler's website:
Ivor is a member of the Noise Abatement Society and the Voluntary Euthanasia Society. He remarked once when asked if he was a member of the Noise Abatement Society "Yes, for years and years, it makes my life a great misery, noises. I always carry earplugs with me" and "The thing that drives me nuts is a lot of the fans that I have - because of Peel, I think, or because of the taste of the day - are people who go home and play very loud music in their homes, and they go in their motor cars playing very loud music with the windows open. Then they come to my gigs and I play as quiet as I can get away with because that's how I want to communicate it. I think, "I ought not to let these people in if they play loud music." Maybe I should stand at the door and you have to fill in a questionnaire before you can hear me."

It was hilariously meta to see him and his circa-"halfway to a threeway" three-piece band live, 'cuz a few people were so into it that they couldn't help but half-belt/half-mumble out the line with him for the however-many-minutes stretch, but of course all those people were guys. (S to the hocka.)
